My reading this morning was 5.1. Only 2 clocks I'd to change were microwave and oven. Don't know why I bother, they both gain minutes every day. 🙂

I’ve made that recipe but used pork loins. Enjoyed it, haven’t made it again as I’d forgotten about it until now. I’ll try it with chicken next time. Enjoy. We’re just having a normal chicken dinner, Mr Eggy has dug up the veg and prepped it all. I’m still in my PJs.. Not doing much today. Cooking Rick Stein's Gratin of chicken with cider
The chicken gratin is featured in this month's Delicious magazine! There are a few recipes this month that I will probably make. Although they are heavy into Christmas already!I’ve made that recipe but used pork loins. Enjoyed it, haven’t made it again as I’d forgotten about it until now. I’ll try it with chicken next time.

How about this for a parsnip! I don’t even like them, unless they’re in a soup. I roast them in honey for the family, they all love them.
It was on his last series. I downloaded them all as there was something yummy on every episode.The chicken gratin is featured in this month's Delicious magazine! There are a few recipes this month that I will probably make. Although they are heavy into Christmas already!
We didn't watch Rick's last series. Perhaps we should watch on catch-up. I have his very first cook-book, signed by him when he was actually still cooking in his restaurant.It was on his last series. I downloaded them all as there was something yummy on every episode.
My BBC Good Food mag this month is all Christmas stuff that I’m not interested in. If I see another “countdown” list of what do do on Christmas Day I’ll scream. Surely people who subscribe to a food mag know the basics of what to do by now! I’m thinking of cancelling my subscription when it’s next due.
8?! I use all of the Pinch of Nom, a couple of Slimming World books, some BBC Good Food and also have a lever arch file with recipes i've found in magazines.Do you know, the average person has just 8 recipe books!!!!!! I have over 100 and gave 83 to the charity shop when we moved (the likes of Marguerite Patten's Home Freezing). One of my friends is the same. My *main* recipe books are 2 Lever arch files full of stuff in plastic pockets organised into categories
I think I got rid of all my cookery books, they were just dust collectors!We didn't watch Rick's last series. Perhaps we should watch on catch-up. I have his very first cook-book, signed by him when he was actually still cooking in his restaurant.
I agree with you @eggyg regarding people who get food mags. I used to get both BBC Good Food and Delicious but I thought BBC Good Food was getting very pedestrian (lots of sausage casserole recipes) so I cancelled it. Then I got Olive mag, but when I looked at renewing it had gone up so much I cancelled it. Why do these mags give great deals for new subscribers but nothing to reward their faithful ones? Anyway, I just get Delicious now and find it has some interesting recipes.

I shall think about Christmas in December!
I very often do the same. I will substitute stuff if I don't have it and other times just throw things together. Sometimes, like last week I went to Google and typed in "salmon and Peppers" and the search threw up a lovely recipe that I already had the ingredients in the larder/fridge. I shall do that one again. But I always get some books at Christmas and will read them like novels.love recipe books but I very rarely cook from them. The reason being that I have too many other things to do and when I find time to cook, I never have all the ingredients for any particular recipe, so I just do a sort of ready steady cook approach, where I try to figure out something I can make from the ingredients I have that need using up. And if I use a recipe, I never stick to it faithfully but always add extras or substitute if I haven't got an item or two. I have a pretty good sense of what goes with what and what doesn't and of course I know what I like and I have an idea of the flavour I am aiming for, but after that it is a bit of this and a bit of that until it tastes about right!
I love a cook book. I bought one last week ( second hand) The Greedy Italians, I realised I didn’t have an Italian cook book. I probably won’t cook anything out if it but I like looking at the pictures.We didn't watch Rick's last series. Perhaps we should watch on catch-up.
